Just like most prospects in this draft, Williams requires some imagination, but I think he's as good of a gamble as almost anyone.

Cody Williams the consistent playmaker having a 10% assist rate w/ a 17.2% TOV rate is still the funniest ****. On a team with a good amount of offensive talent.
Just comparing across the board as freshman. Culver had slightly lower percentages, but he did more with the ball and took more risk. He wasnt as shy to shoot. Cody just hunts efficiency off easy shots he got in Colorado's offense around good players like Simpson and De Silva.So Cody has a:
+10% FG%
+7% 2P%
+8% 3FG% (https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/players/jarrett-culver-1.html)
+7% FT%
You can't really argue that Cody and Jarrett are comparable shooters. You might be able to argue that Culver had very high usage that may have affected his percentages.
Also, I don't see how you can just ignore Culver's soph stats, which were a drop-off from his freshman year. LOL. Culver shot 30% from 3P as a soph.
Lonzo and LaMelo were both gonna be really good if no injuries... which also btw is telling. a genetic factor probably to be more prone to injuries. so if there was a 4th ball brother who had lots of Buzz, I'd be wearyGasol brothers? That's all i can think of tho
Well like I said, if his floor is 7th man on a good team, that is value no doubt. And I think Lamelo and Lonzo could have been Allstars if health wasn't an issue. But yeah I get what you mean... small sample size regardless. It's a fair point. Lopez brothers (1 Allstar), 3 Holidays (1 all star), Millsap brothers (1 Allstar). But what about brothers where there is no Allstar but they have very similar careers? perhaps what we can extrapolate from that is that brothers can replicate similar results (Plumlees, Sellers, Jaron and Jason Collins, etc)If you're a believer in pedigree wouldn't you not want Williams? There's never been two all star brothers iirc.
Cody Williams came off the bench for Colorado. I watched this 2 march madness games and he did not look good. I was really high on him a couple months back but I do not think he's anywhere near his brother at all
Cody Williams came off the bench because he struggled trying to play through injuries. Some you guys are putting way too much emphasis on his end of season compared to the first half of the season when he was actually healthy. If we end up taking him at 8 then we should all be very happy because he is going to be a really good player. I don't know if he is going to be a star like his brother but I'm confident he can be a Cam Johnson caliber of player. He wasn't a high volume 3pt shooter at Coloroado but I think he progresses to that type of player pretty quickly.Cody Williams came off the bench for Colorado.

The NBA is just made for guys who are long, can self-create and can get downhill--even more so these days with the spacing teams are able to create. Siakam made one 3 (1/4), missed half his FTs (5/10) and finished with 36/13. Meanwhile, Dame needed to shoot his *** off to finish with 35.

To me the things to like about Williams are very similar to Jaden McD. He can create his own shiot, but you don't really want him to. He's not a liability on offense but not really a plus.
@Ferguson_Mellochill , give me a good game of Williams that showcases the best his case as an NBA prospect. I want to see what I missed on when watching his play in the tournament.
